A supercharged engine having an electrically operated water pump for supplying cooling water to an intercooler in a compact layout. The supercharged engine includes a supercharger disposed rearwardly of a cylinder assembly of the engine, a drive pulley mounted on a supercharger drive shaft of the engine, a driven pulley mounted on an input shaft of the supercharger, a drive belt trained around the drive pulley and the driven pulley, an intercooler for cooling supercharging air that is supplied from the supercharger, and an electrically operated water pump for delivering cooling water under pressure to the intercooler. The supercharged engine also includes a belt tensioner for tensioning the drive belt. The electrically operated water pump is disposed on a crankcase which is positioned more closely to the center of the engine across the width thereof in directions along a crankshaft of the engine than the belt tensioner.
