An electromagnetic piston engine is characterized by an engine block containing at least one cylinder, within which at least one electromagnet is positions. Within the cylinder, the present invention may also provide for a piston attached to a camshaft, the piston having a magnetic end element fixably attached to its terminus. By means of a power source, the present invention may energize the electromagnet(s), which may provide for an electromagnetic force to be generated within the cylinder and which may act on the magnetic end element(s). The effect of this electromagnetic force may be to either attract or repel, or alternatingly attract and repel, the magnetic end element, thereby moving the piston back and forth within the cylinder, rotating the camshaft and powering a vehicle.
