Default 2 liter turbo 4 in '18 CR-V?

What are the chances that the 2 liter turbo 4 being introduced in the'18 Accord could make it's way into the '18 CR-V?

The 2 litre turbo is positioned as a direct replacement for the V6. Given that we currently don't have a V6 CR-V, then I think it unlikely that Honda will create a high output version of the CR-V.
Of course I would like to be proved wrong , that direct injected 2 litre sounds like a bit of a weapon!

When the Acura RDX launched 10 years ago it launched with a turbo 2.3L K-engine that I assume was a variant of the CR-V's K24. By the second generation it was clear that a V6 was the way to go because with the 3.5L V6 and an extra gear in the transmission both power and fuel economy improved significantly. While I too don't think you'll see the new '18 Accord/Civic Type-R engine dropped into the CR-V, a first gen RDX would be a fun boosted vehicle to play with if you were into such a thing!
