An internal cooling structure for a motor, which is effective to remove the heat in the rotor to achieve high cooling effect is provided. The motor includes a stator having a stator coil and a stator core, and a rotor positioned on an inner side of the stator core. The rotor includes a tubular rotor spindle on a rotor drive shaft, and the rotor core is fitted to the rotor spindle. A cooling space is defined between the rotor drive shaft and the rotor spindle. An inner peripheral surface of the rotor spindle confronting the cooling space has tapered shape having large diameter at an end portion. An oil feed passage for a cooling oil is defined inside the rotor drive shaft, and a cooling oil discharge port of such oil feed passage is formed in the rotor drive shaft confronting the cooling space.
