How it's used
Distinguish between the physical departure of a vehicle and the abstract act of issuing a document or offer. When referring to transport, it implies the moment of leaving a station or depot. In business contexts, it often pairs with terms like 支票 or 條件 to describe the formal presentation of a document or proposal.
Examples
The price they offered is very attractive.

Common mistake
Avoid using this for opening a door or starting a machine, as those require the simple verb 開. Using 開出 for those contexts sounds like you are suggesting the object is moving away from its current location.
