About

Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo is an accelerated checkpoint of Qwen-Image-2.1, released by Alibaba's Qwen team on 9 October 2026. It keeps the same 7B visual generation architecture and handles both text-to-image generation and image editing, but needs only 8 denoising steps; the recommended sampling schedule ships with the checkpoint, generation uses CFG 1 by default, and prefix KV caching reuses text and reference-image context across steps. It inherits Qwen-Image-2.1's features, including native transparent (RGBA) images and editing with multiple reference images and local controls, at resolutions up to about 2K per side.
