A dynamic combination of curved lines and surfaces gave the fifth-generation Celica its unique styling. In terms of mechanism, the most prominent feature of this model generation was the 4-wheel-steering system (dual-mode 4WS) which was the first for Toyota.

GT-Four released in September 1989, the significantly reinforced engine lineup consisted entirely of 2-liter units, with the most powerful engine for the GT-Four model (3S-GTE) producing 225 PS, or 40 PS more than before.

The Active Sports model with an active suspension system was also made available, though on a made-to-order basis and the volume was limited to 300 units. In 1992, 5,000 units of the WRC-homologated GT-Four RC (RC stands for rally competition) were released, winning the first WRC Constructors' title as well as the Drivers' title for Toyota in 1993.
