Smile 2018 EX and Ex-L Engine

Hello all !
I am new to this forum.
I am thinking of buying a 2018 Cr-V EX model.
From what I have seen, the only engine available to that trim line (EX and EX-L) is the 1.5 L turbo and not the 2.4L.
Is that correct ?

Thank you
Robertg423

I would hold off buy a 2018 0r 2019 crv until theoil dilution problem for the 1.5 is solved.
This is a serious problem where fuel enters the crankcase to dilute oil to bring on serious engine dammage.
Hoda knew about this in 2016, but went on selling the crv.
Honda says the fix right now is check your oil after any trip for a gas odor or crankcase filling up with fuel. By then it's too late.....the dammage to the engine ha already occurred..

350,000 1.5 crv's have been recalled in china for this very problem. China has put a stop to any selling of honda crv.
