An electric machine rotor includes a rotor core having pairs of magnets circumferentially distributed around the rotor core, each magnet pair forming a V-shaped configuration with an opening facing an outer periphery of the rotor core, and first and second slots inside the V-shaped configuration that form a magnetic bridge. Sides of the magnetic bridge are angled toward the outer periphery.
