A rotating electric machine rotor according to the present disclosure includes: a rotor shaft extending in a direction of an axis of rotation; and a rotor core fixedly fitted to an outer circumference of the rotor shaft and formed of laminated steel sheets. Further, an inner diameter of the rotor core is smaller than an outer diameter of the rotor shaft. Furthermore, an inner edge part of each laminated steel sheet is made thinner than an outer edge part thereof, and the inner edge part abuts on an outer peripheral surface of the rotor shaft and is curved along the outer peripheral surface of the rotor shaft in the direction of the axis of rotation.
