  • Text-to-CAD generation aims to create parametric CAD models from natural language, enabling rapid prototyping and intuitive design workflows. However, existing benchmarks focus on basic primitives and simple sketch-extrude sequences, lacking advanced features essential for real-world applications and covering only traditional mechanical parts. We introduce Text2CAD-Bench, the first benchmark systematically evaluating text-to-CAD across geometric complexity and application diversity. Our benchmark comprises 600 human-curated examples spanning four levels: L1-L2 cover fundamental geometry with standard features, L3 introduces complex topology and freeform surfaces, and L4 extends to real-world domains beyond mechanical parts. Each example pairs dual-style prompts -- geometric descriptions mimicking non-expert users, and procedural sequences aligned with expert-level conventions. Evaluating mainstream general LLMs and domain-specific models, we find that current models perform reasonably on basic geometry but degrade substantially on complex topology and advanced features. We release our benchmark to drive progress in text-to-CAD research.
