The rangers required a two-speed transfer case for the route to my campground, so I had to satisfy myself with an off-road loop around the ranger station.
The Passport has an approach angle of 21.4 degrees, a departure angle of 27.6 degrees and a breakover angle of 17.3 degrees. That's way more than the other soft-roaders in the class.
The Passport has 8.1 inches of ground clearance. That's not as much as the dirt-worth Jeep Grand Cherokee or Toyota 4Runner, but it's an acceptable amount for a family crossover.
While the Passport doesn't have a low range, its all-wheel-drive system can send 70% of the engine's torque to the rear axle, and put all of that power to the wheel with the most traction.
