Retired on . No longer served on the endpoint we price — the figures below are kept for historical reference only. Replaced by Qwen-Flash. Full retirement status & replacements →
Availability: Alibaba retired qwen-turbo on Model Studio on 2026-10-10, announced 2026-04-13, after recommending Qwen-Flash in its place; API calls to the old model ID now fail. Alibaba's pricing page no longer lists it, so the price above is what the model last cost, not a rate Alibaba will sell you today.

Benchmark performance

accuracy % · higher is better
Percentile vs all tracked models 5.7th1 independent measurement
Percentile per $/Mtok 63.3

We hold no per-benchmark accuracy scores for this model yet, so it has no accuracy average. That is a gap in our coverage, not a sign the model is untested — independent evaluators often publish a composite index for a new model long before releasing its per-benchmark numbers. The percentile above is its standing across the independent composites below.
