A wheel assembly for a vehicle includes a wheel rim suitable to rotate around an axis of rotation (a-a), defining an axial direction (A-A) parallel or coincident with the axis of rotation (a-a), an orthogonal radial direction (R-R), and a circumferential direction locally coincident with a tangential direction (T-T) orthogonal to the axial direction (A-A) and the radial direction (R-R), the wheel rim having a radially outer side, opposite the axis of rotation (a-a), and a radially inner side facing the axis of rotation (a-a), the rim being suitable to receive externally a tire, and wherein the wheel rim forms internally a cylindrical chamber of the rim delimited radially from the inner side; a motor comprising a rotor and a stator; the rotor being supported, free to rotate, on the stator; said stator being fixed to a stator support; the motor being housed in the cylindrical wheel rim chamber of the wheel rim; the rotor is selectively, removably and rigidly connected to the inner side of the wheel rim, avoiding the interposition of elastic members or damping members.
