Abstract
A steel sheet has a specific chemical composition and a steel microstructure including, in terms of area fraction, ferrite: 60% or more and 85% or less, bainite: 3% or more and 15% or less, retained austenite: 3% or more and 15% or less, fresh martensite: 3% or more and 15% or less, and the remainder: 5% or less. Cementite particles are present in the retained austenite, a ratio of an area fraction of the cementite particles in the retained austenite to an area fraction of the retained austenite is 5% or more and 25% or less, and the steel sheet has a tensile strength of 590 MPa or more and less than 780 MPa.
