Abstract
An electric machine for a vehicle includes a stator and a rotor, where the rotor is inserted into an interior space of the stator such that the rotor rotates about an axis of rotation during normal operation of the electric machine. The rotor has a receiving area in which a rotor position sensor is received, and the rotor position sensor is configured to supply an output signal to control the electric machine during normal operation of the electric machine, said output signal indicating a rotational position of the rotor.
