## Abstract

A stator and a motor including the same are disclosed. The stator according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a stator core in which a plurality of slots are formed; and a plurality of windings between an inner periphery and an outer periphery of the stator core, and a first winding is disposed throughout a plurality of layers, a thickness of a second layer adjacent to the inner periphery is less than a thickness of a first layer adjacent to the outer periphery, and the first winding is connected in series in a first area, and connected in parallel in a second area, and the first winding includes a first hairpin, and a second hairpin having a larger length than the first hairpin. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the heat generation upon the motor rotation while a number of welding members is reduced.
