Tynan Motors: A Third-Generation Family Business Built on Community
For more than 60 years, the Tynan family name has become synonymous with trust, community and automotive excellence across Southern Sydney, the Sutherland Shire and the Illawarra.
What began as a family business built on hard work, honesty and genuine customer relationships has grown into one of Australia’s most respected automotive dealership groups. Today, Tynan Motors proudly represents 19 automotive brands across seven locations while remaining proudly family owned and operated.
Now led by the third generation of the Tynan family, Tynan Motors continues to evolve while staying true to the values established more than six decades ago — family, integrity, customer service and community support.
For many Sydney families, buying a car from Tynan Motors has become a tradition passed down through generations, much like the business itself.
A Family Legacy Built in Southern Sydney
From humble beginnings in the Sutherland Shire, the Tynan family built the business around one simple philosophy: look after people first.
That customer-first approach has helped Tynan Motors grow into a trusted name across Southern Sydney and the Illawarra, with generations of customers returning to the dealership group for vehicles, servicing, finance and long-term automotive support.
Today, Tynan Motors employs hundreds of staff across multiple dealership locations while continuing to maintain the personalised service and family atmosphere that customers have come to expect.
The business has become widely recognised throughout New South Wales not only for automotive excellence, but also for its deep connection to the local community.
Supporting the Community Beyond the Showroom
Community involvement has always been a core part of the Tynan Motors identity.
Over the years, the Tynan family has proudly supported a wide range of charities, sporting organisations and community initiatives throughout Southern Sydney and the Illawarra.
This includes ongoing support for:
- St George and Sutherland Medical Research Foundation
- Wollongong University medical research initiatives
- The Disability Trust
- Southern Districts Rugby Club
- Community partnerships connected to the Cronulla Sharks
Annette Tynan said giving back to the community has always been part of the company’s DNA.
“We’ve always believed being part of the community means showing up, supporting local people and giving back wherever we can,” Annette Tynan said.
“Our business was built in the local community, so it’s incredibly important for us to continue supporting the people and organisations that make this region so special.”
As the business continues to grow, the family says community support remains just as important today as it was more than 60 years ago.
Driving the Future with Third-Generation Leadership
The third generation of the Tynan family is now actively involved in helping lead the business into the future, continuing the legacy established decades earlier.
While the automotive industry continues to evolve with hybrid technology, electric vehicles and changing customer expectations, Tynan Motors remains focused on delivering exceptional customer experiences built on trust and long-term relationships.
The dealership group continues to invest in modern technology, customer service and innovation while maintaining the family values that have shaped the company since day one.
According to the Tynan family, the company’s greatest achievement is not measured purely by growth, but by the relationships built with customers, employees and the local community over generations.
Trusted by Generations of Australian Families
For many customers across Sydney and the Illawarra, Tynan Motors represents more than just a dealership.
It represents reliability, family values and a trusted local business that has supported the community for decades.
Whether customers are purchasing their first vehicle, upgrading their family car or returning for servicing and support, the Tynan Motors team remains committed to delivering the same honest and personalised experience that has defined the business for more than 60 years.
With locations across Southern Sydney and the Illawarra, including Tynan Hyundai Kirrawee, Tynan Motors continues to support drivers with expert advice, quality vehicles and award-winning customer service.
The Future of Tynan Motors
As Tynan Motors looks toward the future, the mission remains simple: continue supporting the local community, look after customers and build a business future generations can be proud of.
With third-generation leadership helping shape the next chapter, Tynan Motors proudly continues its legacy as one of Australia’s leading family-owned automotive dealership groups.
