A lightweight, high-conductivity, heat-resistant, and iron-containing aluminum wire, and a preparation process thereof. The aluminum wire is mainly composed of aluminum, boron, zirconium, iron, lanthanum, and inevitable impurity elements, and the preparation process for the wire is as follows: melting industrial pure aluminum; then adding intermediate alloys of boron, zirconium, iron, and lanthanum to the melt; performing stirring, refining, furnace front component rapid analysis, component adjustment, standing, deslagging, and rapid cooling casting to obtain an aluminum alloy blank; and performing annealing, extrusion, and drawing on the cast blank to obtain an aluminum alloy monofilament. The wire obtained has density less than or equal to 2.714 g/cm3, electrical conductivity greater than or equal to 62% IACS, a short-term heat-resistance temperature as high as 230&#xb0; C., a long-term heat-resistance temperature as high as 210&#xb0; C., and tensile strength greater than or equal to 170 MPa.
