An air intake assembly arranged in an engine compartment of an automotive vehicle and configured for directing air into a throttle body of an engine of the vehicle is provided. The air intake assembly includes an air intake duct and an air jacket. The air intake duct is configured to direct air from an inlet duct to the throttle body. The air jacket is arranged around the air intake duct. The air jacket has a first air jacket opening and a second air jacket opening. The air jacket forms an air gap between the air jacket and the air intake duct. Air flowing through the air jacket from one of the first and second air jacket openings to the other of the first and second air jacket openings cools the air intake duct thereby reducing a temperature of air directed from the intake duct into the throttle body.
