Abstract: An electromechanical braking device for a motor vehicle comprises an actuating device which is driveable by at least one electric motor and by which a brake part is adjustable, wherein the motor has a stator and a rotor, which is rotatably mounted therein about a motor axis, wherein the rotor comprises rotor magnets which are distributed over the outer circumference, are in the form of permanent magnets and extend in a rod-shaped manner axially parallel to the rotor axis, and which each have a radial magnet thickness and a magnet width in the circumferential direction. A ratio of the magnet thickness to the magnet width is between 0.4 and 0.55.
