A rolled steel sheet or blank is provided, the composition of which comprises the elements listed below in percent by weight: C&#x2266;0.1%; 0.5%&#x2266;Mn&#x2266;7%; 0.5%&#x2266;Si&#x2266;3.5%; 0.5%&#x3c;Ti&#x2266;2%; 2%&#x3c;Ni&#x2266;7%; Al&#x2266;0.10%; Cr&#x2266;2%; Cu&#x2266;2%; Co&#x2266;2%; Mo&#x2266;2%; S&#x2266;0.005%; P&#x2266;0.03%; Nb&#x2266;0.1%; V&#x2266;0.1%; B&#x3c;0.005%; N&#x2266;0.008%, and the silicon and titanium contents are such that: the remainder of the composition consisting of iron and unavoidable impurities resulting from processing. A method for the fabrication of a part for a land motor vehicle from the sheet or blank by hot stamping is also provided. The microstructure of the part consisting essentially of martensite and intermetallic precipitates of type FeTiSi with an area percentage between 1 and 5% intermetallic precipitates.
