Angle of departure
-
When viewing a vehicle from its side, the angle of departure is the angle between the ground and a line running from the rear tires to the lowest-hanging component directly behind them (which is usually the rear bumper). Similar to the approach angle only backwards, the departure angle indicates a vehicles ability to drive off a ramp or some other obstacle without damaging the rear part of its undercarriage.
