Abstract
A plated steel sheet including a steel sheet and a plating layer disposed on a surface of the steel sheet, the steel sheet having a tensile strength of 1150 MPa or more, where the steel sheet included in the plated steel sheet has a predetermined composition and a metal microstructure in which a total of bainite and tempered martensite accounts for 95 area % or less, retained austenite accounts for 5 vol % or more, a total of polygonal ferrite and bainitic ferrite accounts for 5 area % or less, and a balance of the metal microstructure accounts for 5 area % or less.
