Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo, create and edit images in just 8 denoising steps! Open weights now available!

Built on Qwen-Image-2.1, Turbo is an accelerated checkpoint on the same 7B visual generation architecture.

Fewer steps does not mean lower quality: it still generates strong 2K images from text, and supports continued creation through natural-language edits, from adding accessories to changing a scene.

Start directly with Diffusers: load QwenImage21Pipeline and the checkpoint’s recommended 8-step sampling schedule is ready to go.
