A vehicle lighting device including an ADB lighting device unit can form an ADB light distribution pattern as a desired form while restraining heat generation of a plurality of light-emitting elements constituting the ADB lighting device unit. An ADB lighting device unit is configured to emit outgoing lights from six light-emitting elements through six projection lenses in a lighting-device forward direction. On that occasion, outgoing light from the projection lens positioned at a left end portion is emitted in a direction inclined to the side of a right end portion with respect to a lighting-device front direction. Thereby, a part of the outgoing light from the projection lens is prevented from being intercepted by a low-beam lighting device unit, even though the low-beam lighting device unit is disposed at a left lateral vicinity of the ADB lighting device unit.
A vehicle lighting device comprising an ADB lighting device unit configured to be able to form a plurality of small light distribution patterns in a parallel arrangement at a position that overlaps with a cutoff line of a low-beam light distribution pattern, the ADB lighting device unit including a plurality of projection lenses that is disposed in a state of being arrayed in a right-left direction, and a plurality of light-emitting elements that is disposed on a lighting-device rearward side of the projection lenses,
