A low-cost lightweight 600MPa-grade automobile body steel, its chemical composition and mass percentage are: C: 0.050-0.090%, Si≤0.12%, Mn: 1.00-1.30%, P≤0.016%, S≤0.005%, Als: 0.015~0.045%, Ti: 0.070~0.100%, the balance is Fe and unavoidable impurities; the preparation methods include converter, refining, continuous casting, heating, rolling, cooling, coiling, feeding Storage stacking and leveling process; continuous casting process, the steel flow from the ladle to the tundish is sealed with argon gas at the long nozzle, the process adopts a dynamic light reduction of 8mm, and the solidification end increases the reduction by 0.5mm; Gas N content ≤ 0.0055wt%. The invention has the advantages of low production cost, thin product thickness specification, uniform and stable mechanical properties, good cold bending performance and excellent plate shape quality.
