Abstract
This invention provides a high-strength hot-rolled steel sheet having strength of at least 980 N/mm2 at a sheet thickness of from about 1.0 to about 6.0 mm and excellent in hole expandability, ductility and ability of phosphate coating, which steel sheet is directed to automotive suspension components that are subjected to pressing. The high-strength hot-rolled steel sheet contains, in terms of a mass %, C: 0.01 to 0.09%, Si: 0.05 to 1.5%, Mn: 0.5 to 3.2%, Al: 0.003 to 1.5%, P: 0.03% or below, S: 0.005% or below, Ti: 0.10 to 0.25%, Nb:
