The present invention discloses a method and device for controlling the no-load back electromotive force of a permanent magnet motor. A switch is installed between the motor and the motor control module, and the switch is connected to the switch control module. First, it is determined whether the motor is in a no-load state.

In this way, during the vehicle neutral coasting test, the endurance consistency problem caused by the zero torque deviation of the motor is effectively solved. On the other hand, for four-wheel drive models and distributed drive models, when the vehicle is running normally and the motor is no-loaded, the motor can be prevented from generating back electromotive force, thereby saving battery power and effectively improving the vehicle's endurance.
