Appearance
Both the 2023 CR-V and the 2023 Pilot have refreshed styling. The CR-V's new look includes angled, LED-topped headlights that trend out from the black grille. The lower-front fascia also has a black finish, and slender, angled air vents accent it. Across the sides, the CR-V has thick body molding and a pinstripe accent. The 2023 Pilot is a larger vehicle, and its tall, flat roof accommodates a third row of seats in its cabin. This SUV has a more prominent grille with the same shape as the CR-V. Its headlights are similar in shape, but the LED accent light runs along the lower perimeter. Below the grille, the bumper has a metallic accent and is connected to larger air vents. The Pilot's sides are smoother and are accented with black molding.
