Presented are electric machines with optimized stator tooth geometries and multi-gauge stator conductors, methods for making/using such electric machines, and motor vehicles equipped with such electric machines. An electric machine includes a housing, a rotor assembly rotatably attached to the housing, and a stator assembly coaxial with and separated by an airgap from the rotor assembly. The rotor assembly includes one or more magnets mounted to a rotor core. The stator assembly includes a stator core with multiple axially elongated, circumferentially spaced stator slots, multiple radially aligned stator teeth interleaved between and separating the slots, and multiple electromagnetic windings wound through the slots. Each stator tooth has an elongated tooth body with a tooth head at a radial end of a tooth root, which attaches to a cylindrical hub of the stator core. The tooth head has an axial cross-section with a trapezoidal crown integral with a rectangular tip.
