Passport, formally Passport International Automobiles, was a Canadian car dealership network owned by General Motors that sold vehicles from Isuzu and Saab as well as its own branded Passport Optima, a Korean built Daewoo version of the Opel Kadett E, starting in model year 1988. Sales began in mid-1987, originally only in major metropolitan areas, and only 83 I-Marks and Optimas were sold in 1987. The Optima was offered as a hatchback or sedan, achieved 52 miles per gallon on the highway and was designed by Opel. General Motors Canada changed its branding strategy in 1991 and disbanded the Passport division, rebadging the Optima as the Asüna SE and GT.
