The invention relates to a cold-resistant high-strength hot-rolled angle steel and a production method thereof. The angle steel contains, by weight, 0.06%-0.20% of carbon (C), 0.20%-0.50% of silicon (Si), 1.10%-1.50% of manganese (Mn), phosphorus (p), sulphur (s), 0.030%-0.070% of vanadium(V), 0.015%-0.050% of niobium (Nb), and 0.10%-0.60% of nickel (Ni), wherein p <=0.015% and s <=0.010%. Carbon equivalent (CEV) =C+Mn / 6+ (Cr+Mo+V) / 5+ (Ni+Cu) / 15<=0.40%. The process includes smelting, slagging, argon blowing, continuous casting, heating of casting blank, hot rolling and cooling to a room temperature. According to the cold-resistant high-strength hot-rolled angle steel and the production method thereof, requirements for a power transmission tower at -40 DEG C can be completely satisfied, the yield strength of the angle steel is larger than 550 MPa, the tensile strength of the angle steel is larger than or equal to 680 MPa, the elongation after fracture of the angle steel is larger than or equal to 24%, the Charpy impact energy at -40 DEGC is larger than or equal to 55J, and the grade of the prior austenite grain size is greater than or equal to 10 grade. The cold-resistant high-strength hot-rolled angle steel has the advantages of being high in strength, fine in grains and good in toughness, the production method can be used for producing the angle steel for an ultrahigh pressure power transmission tower, and the side width of the angle steel can be kept to be 280mm or more.
