## Highlights

### V1

We have now enabled V1 engine by default (#13726) for supported use cases. Please refer to [V1 user guide](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/getting_started/v1_user_guide.html) for more detail. We expect better performance for supported scenarios. If you'd like to disable V1 mode, please specify the environment variable `VLLM_USE_V1=0`, and send us a GitHub issue sharing the reason!
