The present disclosure relates to an electric brake system for an electric vehicle, which is more economical by simplifying a configuration of an electric vehicle that includes a main service brake and an electromagnetic brake, the electric brake system including an inductor, in a spherical shape, formed so that a drive axle penetrates through a center portion of the inductor; a plurality of springs inserted into holes defined in the inductor; an armature, in a disk shape, provided to contact the spring; and a friction disk mounted on a side of a motor, where a braking force is generated by operating the friction disk toward the armature.
