The Z20 series Toyota Soarer was produced from January 1986 to April 1991 and was available in several variants. The styling of the second-generation Soarer is similar of that of the X80 series [[Toyota Cressida (X80)|Cressida]], [[Toyota Mark II (X80)|Mark II]], [[Toyota Chaser (X80)|Chaser]] and [[Toyota Cresta (X80)|Cresta]].<ref name="intellexual.net"/> The Soarer shared its platform with the newly introduced [[Toyota Supra (A70)|A70 series Supra]].

The Z20 Soarer revised the previous generation Electro MultiVision CRT display installation from the instrument cluster to a location below the automatic climate control, which could be upgraded to a touch-sensitive interface. A new feature offered navigation information uploaded by the use of [[cassette tapes]] then upgraded to [[CD-ROM]].<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.toyota-global.com/company/history_of_toyota/75years/data/automotive_business/products_technology/technology_development/electronics_parts/index.html | title = Technical Development Electronics Parts | publisher = Toyota Motor Corporation | date = 2012 | access-date = 2015-01-14}}</ref> The digital speedometer display was upgraded and provided more information at a glance. The cloth upholstery was unique to each trim package, and the sport bucket seats used in the [[Toyota Supra (A70)]] were offered only on GT trim packages upholstered in cloth or leather.<ref name="1stthru4thSoarer"/>

In 1986, the electronically controlled shock absorber ([[Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension|TEMS]]) carried over from the previous generation, and the double wishbone suspension was now shared with the A70 Supra.<ref name="Technical Development - Chassis"/> An electronically controlled airbag suspension was also available on the GT Limited model.<ref name="1stthru4thSoarer"/>

In 1988, [[TOM'S]] released a limited-model package for the 7M-GTE equipped vehicles named the C5. The TOM'S C5 Soarer could be optioned with a remapped ECU, larger turbocharger compressor, a woven fibre intake pipe, KYB shock absorbers with lowered springs, bespoke 16x8" ±50 TOM'S C5 wheels that were manufactured by Ray's Engineering and TOM'S C5 badges for the rear of the vehicle.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Imgur |title=TOM'S C5 Soarer/Supra |url=https://imgur.com/gallery/NeldN |access-date=2024-06-25 |website=Imgur |language=en}}</ref>

In April 1989, a limited 500-unit variant called the Aerocabin was introduced. This variant had only 2 seats and an electric folding roof. The Aerocabin had the same specs as the GT-Limited but was only available with the 7M-GTE engine, 4-speed automatic transmission, tan leather interior, and pearlescent paint.

In 1988, the Soarer Z20 was given a facelift. The grille and rear taillights were redesigned and minor interior changes were made (climate control, dash). Other than that engines were improved, with power increases as follows:
* 1G-GTEU {{cvt|180|to|200|PS|kW hp|0}}
* 7M-GTEU {{cvt|230|to|240|PS|kW hp|0}}

Unlike the A70 Supra, the 2.5&nbsp;L twin turbo 1JZ-GTE was not made available for the Z20 Soarer. However, all models built from May 1989 including the Aerocabin did have a revised crossmember.
