A vehicle can earn an Acceptable rating while still qualifying for a Top Safety Pick, and the Plus award requires a Good rating.
There is also a new nighttime collision avoidance test with pedestrians. An advanced or higher score is required for a Top Safety Pick+.
Finally, a vehicle in 2023 needs good or acceptable standard headlights to be eligible for a safety choice.
