The present invention provides an aluminum alloy wire material that has high strength and flexibility and is less prone to breakage when subjected to severe bending such as 180°. The aluminum alloy wire rod of the present invention has the following composition: Mg: 0.1-1.0 mass%, Si: 0.1-1.0 mass%, Fe: 0.01-1.40 mass%, Ti: 0.000-0.100 mass%, B: 0.000-0.030 mass%, Cu: 0.00-1.00 mass%, Ag: 0.00-0.50 mass%, Au: 0.00-0.50 mass%, Mn: 0.00-1.00 mass%, Cr: 0.00-1.00 mass%, Zr: 0.00-0.50 mass%, Hf: 0.00-0.50 mass%, V: 0.00-0.50 mass%, Sc: 0.00-0.50 mass%, Sn: 0.00-0.50 mass%, Co: 0.00-0.50 mass%, Ni: 0.00-0.50 mass%, the balance is Al and unavoidable impurities, the area ratio of the region where the angle formed by the longitudinal direction of the aluminum alloy wire rod and the <111> direction of the crystal is within 20° is 20% to 65%.
