 You can install vLLM using either `pip` or `uv pip`:
 
 ```console
-# Install vLLM with CUDA 12.6.
-pip install vllm # If you are using pip.
-uv pip install vllm # If you are using uv.
+# Install vLLM with CUDA 12.8.
+# If you are using pip.

+# If you are using uv.
+uv pip install vllm --torch-backend=auto
 ```
 
-As of now, vLLM's binaries are compiled with CUDA 12.6 and public PyTorch release versions by default. We also provide vLLM binaries compiled with CUDA 12.8, 11.8, and public PyTorch release versions:
+We recommend leveraging `uv` to [automatically select the appropriate PyTorch index at runtime](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/integration/pytorch/#automatic-backend-selection) by inspecting the installed CUDA driver version via `--torch-backend=auto` (or `UV_TORCH_BACKEND=auto`). To select a specific backend (e.g., `cu126`), set `--torch-backend=cu126` (or `UV_TORCH_BACKEND=cu126`). If this doesn't work, try running `uv self update` to update `uv` first.

+NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs (B200, GB200) require a minimum of CUDA 12.8, so make sure you are installing PyTorch wheels with at least that version. PyTorch itself offers a [dedicated interface](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/) to determine the appropriate pip command to run for a given target configuration.

 ##### Install specific revisions using `uv`
 
 If you want to access the wheels for previous commits (e.g. to bisect the behavior change, performance regression), you can specify the commit hash in the URL:
 
 ```console
 export VLLM_COMMIT=72d9c316d3f6ede485146fe5aabd4e61dbc59069 # use full commit hash from the main branch
-uv pip install vllm --extra-index-url https://wheels.vllm.ai/${VLLM_COMMIT}
+uv pip install vllm --torch-backend=auto --extra-index-url https://wheels.vllm.ai/${VLLM_COMMIT}
 ```
 
 The `uv` approach works for vLLM `v0.6.6` and later and offers an easy-to-remember command. A unique feature of `uv` is that packages in `--extra-index-url` have [higher priority than the default index](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/pip/compatibility/#packages-that-exist-on-multiple-indexes). If the latest public release is `v0.6.6.post1`, `uv`'s behavior allows installing a commit before `v0.6.6.post1` by specifying the `--extra-index-url`. In contrast, `pip` combines packages from `--extra-index-url` and the default index, choosing only the latest version, which makes it difficult to install a development version prior to the released version.
