The present invention provides a synchronous motor drive system designed to realize reduced vibration and noise along with high output. The system includes: inverters 101, 102, and 103 for converting a direct current to a three-phase alternating current; a current application control unit 52 that controls operations of the three-phase inverters; and a synchronous motor 41 driven by three-phase alternating currents supplied from the three-phase inverters. The current application control unit 52 determines, for each three-phase inverter, a current phase angle and a current amount of a three-phase alternating current to output, and each inverter supplies a three-phase alternating current having the determined current phase angle and current amount to a different one of three-phase coil groups 200a to 200c.
