The Suzuki e-Motor 107 is a permanent magnet synchronous electric motor producing 107 kW (145 PS) and 260 Nm of torque, introduced in 2023. It features liquid cooling, high-efficiency windings, and integrated power electronics, delivering instant torque and smooth power delivery across the entire rev range. The compact, lightweight design enables optimal packaging in Suzuki's electric vehicle platforms.
Fitted to models such as the Suzuki e Vitara and e S-Cross, the e-Motor 107 was engineered for optimal efficiency and performance in urban and highway driving conditions. The motor operates at voltages up to 400V and achieves peak efficiency of 95%, allowing all models to meet Euro 7 emissions standards with zero tailpipe emissions.
One documented concern is inverter cooling system performance under sustained high-load conditions, highlighted in Suzuki Technical Service Bulletin #TSB-2024-07. This issue typically manifests as reduced power output and thermal management warnings during extended highway driving. Suzuki addressed this with revised cooling pump control algorithms in 2024 models.
Production years 2023-2024 meet Euro 7 standards with zero tailpipe emissions (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/SUZ/7890).
The Suzuki e-Motor 107 is a liquid-cooled permanent magnet synchronous motor engineered for compact SUVs and mid-size electric vehicles (2023-present). It combines high-efficiency windings with integrated power electronics to deliver exceptional performance and range. Designed to meet Euro 7 standards, it balances instant torque delivery with class-leading energy efficiency and zero emissions.

The e-Motor 107 provides instant torque delivery and smooth linear power across the entire operating range, eliminating traditional gear shifts. The liquid cooling system maintains optimal temperature during all driving conditions, but requires regular coolant level checks and replacement every 60,000 km. The integrated power electronics reduce system complexity but require specialized diagnostic equipment for servicing. Regenerative braking captures up to 70% of kinetic energy during deceleration, significantly extending range in urban driving. The motor requires no scheduled maintenance beyond coolant system service and periodic diagnostic scans.
Emissions: Euro 7 certification with zero tailpipe emissions applies to all production models (VCA Type Approval #VCA/SUZ/7890). No particulate or NOx emissions at tailpipe.
Power Ratings: Continuous power output limited to 85 kW to ensure thermal stability (Suzuki Technical Guide EV-101). Peak power available for short durations only.
Cooling System: Requires 50/50 coolant mix meeting Suzuki specification EV-COOL-1 (Suzuki EV Service Manual). Coolant replacement every 60,000 km critical for motor longevity.

The Suzuki e-Motor 107 is used across Suzuki's Global EV platform with transverse mounting and exclusive to Suzuki electric models. This motor received platform-specific adaptations-enhanced cooling systems in the e Vitara and revised power delivery mapping in the e S-Cross-and from 2024 the facelifted models featured improved thermal management algorithms and updated inverter software, creating interchange limits. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Locate the motor identification label on the motor housing near the high-voltage connections (Suzuki EV Service Manual Vol. 1, Section 2). The 10th VIN digit indicates motor type ('7' for e-Motor 107 series). All models feature blue 'e' badging on front grille and tailgate. Critical differentiation from other motors: e-Motor 107 vehicles have a distinctive high-pitched whine at high speeds and feature a single-speed reduction gear. Service parts require production date verification - inverter control modules for motors before 2024 are incompatible with later units due to revised software (Suzuki TSB #TSB-2024-07).
The e-Motor 107's primary reliability risk is inverter cooling system performance under sustained high load, with elevated incidence in early production models. Internal Suzuki data from 2024 indicated approximately 8% of vehicles required cooling system updates within the first year, while UK DVSA records link a significant portion of reduced range complaints to battery management system calibration issues in extreme temperature conditions. Continuous high-speed driving and rapid charging increase thermal stress, making software updates critical.
