Provided are an embedded outer rotor electric motor direct-drive lawnmower drive wheel (9) and a lawnmower the drive wheel (9) comprises a wheel side cover I (11), a wheel side cover II (12), and a drive wheel body assembled from a wheel body (2) and sandwiched between the wheel side cover I (11) and the wheel side cover II (12) the wheel side cover I (1), wheel side cover II (12), and wheel body (2) define a cavity (3) an outer rotor motor (4) is mounted within the cavity (3) the outer rotor part of said outer rotor motor (4) is fixedly arranged opposite the drive wheel body the inner stator part of said outer rotor motor (4) has a fixed shaft (41) extending out of the wheel side cover I (11) to outside the drive wheel body the wheel side cover I (11) is provided with a shaft bore I (111) used for causing the fixed shaft (41) to protrude outward. The drive wheel (9) has the outer rotor motor (4) mounted inside the drive wheel (9), and the outer rotor motor (4) directly drives the drive wheel (9) of the lawnmower, thus transmission is accurate and reliable, and the space inside the lawnmower is more reasonable.
