A vapor provision system includes an aerosol delivery section configured to generate aerosol from liquid in a reservoir, an airflow path through the aerosol delivery section extending from an air inlet to a mouthpiece, a battery section configured to join to the aerosol delivery section and house a battery to provide electrical power to one or more components in the aerosol delivery section, the battery section arranged laterally to at least a portion to the aerosol delivery section with respect to a direction of airflow through the mouthpiece, and an interface region in which a surface of the aerosol delivery section faces a surface of the battery section when the sections are joined, the air inlet being located on the aerosol delivery section in the interface region so as to take in air that has been channeled over part of the battery section.
