A motor assembly is provided with a stator including a lamination stack forming a stator core, stator teeth inwardly projecting from the stator core, and stator windings wound around the stator teeth in connected in phases. A rotor is rotatably disposed within the stator with a shaft, a rotor lamination stack mounted on the shaft, and at least one bearing mounted on the shaft. An external heat sink is provided including a main body defining a hollow opening form-fittingly receiving the stator therein in thermal communication with the stator. A bearing support structure is provided having a main body radially arranged and secured the main body of the external heat sink, the bearing support structure forming a central bearing pocket arranged to receive and support the bearing of the rotor therein to axially and radially support the rotor with respect to the heat sink.
