Rotating electric machine and drive device

Abstract

A rotating electric machine includes a rotor rotatable about a central axis, and a stator positioned radially outside the rotor. The rotor includes a shaft axially extending about the central axis, rotor core portions fixed to an outer peripheral surface of the shaft and in an axial direction, a magnet held by each of the rotor core portions, and at least one spacer that is a non-magnetic body with a ring-plate shape about the central axis and is between the rotor core portions which are axially adjacent to each other. The spacer is smaller in outer diameter than the rotor core portion.
