The correct hitch for a 2023 Honda CR-V is the etrailer Hitch item # e98848. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Honda with included hardware.
We have the wiring harness but not the kick sensor adapter. Those are available through Honda. The correct wiring harness is going to depend on whether or not your CR-V is front wheel drive or all wheel drive. I have listed both options below. One is custom fit and the other requires splicing.
Front Wheel Drive - Curt Powered Tail Light Converter item # C59236
All Wheel Drive - Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C56370
To round out your towing setup I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534. This towing kit will provide you with a 2" ball and a fixed ball mount with a 3/4" rise and 2" drop. It also includes a hitch pin and clip, hitch receiver lock with keys, hitch cover, and a storage case.
