A synchronous electric motor including a rotor having a rotation axis, and a stator surrounding the rotor through a gap. The rotor includes a rotor core having an outer circumferential surface extending about the rotation axis and a plurality of permanent magnets attached to the rotor core to form plural poles along the outer circumferential surface of the rotor core. The outer circumferential surface of the rotor core is provided, at each pole, with a contour deviating from a circular arc and bulging out in a radial outward direction, as seen in a cross-section perpendicular to the rotation axis. The permanent magnets include a plurality of magnet sets individually assigned to the plural poles, each set including two or more permanent magnets. The contour of the outer circumferential surface of the rotor core, at each pole, has at least partially a shape represented by a hyperbolic cosine function or a secant function.
