Codestral 25.01: Mistral AI Releases Updated Coding Model with 2x Speed and Improved FIM Performance

Mistral AI has released Codestral 25.01, a significant upgrade to its Codestral coding model featuring a more efficient architecture and improved tokenizer that generates code approximately 2x faster than its predecessor. The model claims state-of-the-art performance for fill-in-the-middle (FIM) tasks across sub-100B parameter models, with a 256k context window and support for 80+ programming languages. Benchmarks show improvements over Codestral 2405 and competitive or superior results against DeepSeek Coder V2 lite and DeepSeek Coder 33B on HumanEval and FIM metrics. The model is available via Mistral's API, IDE plugins (VS Code, JetBrains via Continue), and for on-premises/VPC deployment, with cloud availability on Vertex AI and Azure AI Foundry.
