Abstract

The high-strength steel sheet includes, by mass %: C: 0.01% to 0.10%; Si: 0.15% or less; Mn: 0.80% to 1.80%; P: 0.10% or less; S: 0.015% or less; Al: 0.10% to 0.80%; Cr: 0.01% to 1.50%; N: 0.0100% or less; and a balance consisting of iron and inevitable impurities, in which a metallic structure is composed of ferrite and a hard second phase, the area fraction of the ferrite is 80% or more, the area fraction of the hard second phase is 1% to 20%, the fraction of unrecrystallized ferrite in the ferrite is less than 10%, the ferrite grain sizes are 5 μm to 20 μm, and the fraction of the ferrite crystal grains having an aspect ratio of 1.2 or less in the entire ferrite crystal grains is 60% or more.
