Usually they give you a word limit or a character limit so follow that if available. Also, in the prompt it states "briefly" so be concise and answer the question directly as asked. If they are not asking for asking for your motivation do not include additional information. I think if you have additional words/characters and there are no other questions about your motivations in pursuing this role/company then it is ok to include this as well but focus on answering the questions they asked FIRST. Typically in the application form you want to just answer the question and in the essays you can try to read into some of the underlying details the schools is looking for. Keep it simple here!
