Abstract

Provided is a high strength hot rolled steel sheet having a predetermined chemical composition, wherein when a total width in a direction perpendicular to a rolling direction and sheet thickness direction is W, a microstructure at a ¼ position in sheet thickness at all positions of a 1/10W position, 3/10W position, 5/10W position, 7/10W position, and 9/10W position from an end in a width direction comprises, by area %, tempered martensite: 95% or more, fresh martensite: 5% or less, and at least one of ferrite, upper bainite, and pearlite: 5% or less in total, and a difference between a maximum value and minimum value in tensile strength at all the positions in the width direction is 30 MPa or less.
