What Engine do I have?

This might seem like a silly question, but i was in belief that I purchased the 2.0 L 2015 RVR 3 weeks ago, but after doing a little research I realized that i may actually own the 2.4 L. The engine bay looks very similar to that of the 2.4, but maybe some of you would be able to distinguish which engine I have by looking at this picture?

I've never seen this on a 4B11 (2.0L), but it could be new for 2015?

If the 8th character in your VIN is a "W" you have a 2.4 Now if you had an "X"...

Do you notice an amazing power difference between your car and the one you test drove before buying? No? You might well have a 2.4l then haha.

Hmmm... I just did. No issues. The PDF I posted will allow the OP to determine their engine.

maybe it was a twin-turbo V8 and it sucked him in.
