A coil fixing device capable of accurately positioning and fixing a coil to a slot of a stator core of an electric motor, and an electric motor having the fixing device, while not using adhesive and having a structure not affecting the characteristic of the electric motor. A positioning member of the fixing device has a coupling member positioned at an axial end of the stator core; a plurality of protruding portions connected to the coupling member at the same angular intervals as the coils, each protruding portion radially inwardly extending from the coupling member; and a latching portion connected to a front end of each protruding portion, the latching portion extending from the front end of each protruding portion in a direction across an extending direction of the protruding portion.
