Plated steel material

A plated steel material comprising:

• a steel material;
• and a plated-metal-layer arranged on a surface of the steel material, wherein
• the plated-metal-layer includes:
• a lower alloy layer;
• an intermediate alloy layer;
• and an upper plated layer made of a Zn-based alloy including 0 to 5.0% of Fe arranged in this order from a side of the steel material,
• a thickness of the lower alloy layer is 5 μm or more, a thickness of the intermediate alloy layer is 1.0 μm or more, and a total thickness of the lower alloy layer and the intermediate alloy layer is 6 μm or more,
• the lower alloy layer includes, as a chemical composition, in terms of mass %,

• 30.0 to 55.0% of Al,
• 22.5 to 50.0% of Fe,
• 0 to 10.0% of Si,
• 0 to less than 0.5% of Ni,
• 0 to 1.0% of Mg, and
• a balance including impurities, and
• the intermediate alloy layer includes, as a chemical composition, in terms of mass %,
• 5.0 to 35.0% of Zn,
• 25.0 to 60.0% of Al,
• 20.0 to 45.0% of Fe,
