ElevenLabs Sweeps All Five New Voice Arena TTS Leaderboards Across Native-Speaker Blind Tests

Scobleizer · x · 2026-10-24

Voice Arena's TTS leaderboard added five languages — French, German, Bahasa, Tagalog and Indian English — all judged by blind votes from vetted native speakers. ElevenLabs took #1 on every board: Eleven v4 Turbo led four, while Eleven v4 topped Bahasa (and took #2 there). It beat the next-best model by 11–26 Elo points, underscoring that voices great in English can sound off elsewhere — only native speakers really hear it.
