Sisley for Honda

General information

The Sisley family has been involved in the retail automotive sales business since at least 1924. Upon returning from the war in 1946, Max Sisley (grandfather to Hugh) approached Chrysler about opening his own dealership. They agreed and M. M. Sisley Ltd. was born on the grounds of a rented coal yard gatehouse, located in Lansing, Ontario now known as the intersection of Yonge Street and Sheppard Avenue. In 1958, Don Sisley (father to Hugh) had determined that small cars were the way of the future and replaced the dealership's vehicles with those manufactured by American Motors. Undeterred, Don continued to believe that small cars were the future market and, in 1968, tweaked his prophecy: not only were small cars the future, but small Japanese cars in particular. Come 1977, Don made yet another adjustment to the products available through his company, though this would be the final time. That year he changed manufacturers from Datsun to Honda. Ever since then, Sisley for Honda has been one of the highest volume Honda dealers in Canada.

Changing products is only one way in which we have adapted to consumers' needs, having also moved locations and constantly updated our facilities to better serve our customers. In 2002, Hugh built the facility that the company currently occupies at 88 Steeles Avenue West. While now over ten years old, it remains an industry leading, state-of-the-art facility.

Here, three generations, four locations and nearly three quarters of a century later, he upholds the same values that his grandfather and father prized before him: quality, customer satisfaction and, most importantly, family, because Sisley Motors Ltd. is more than just a business, it's a part of our Sisley heritage.
