The arc-shaped profile of the ramp can reduce the loading angle between the distal end of the ramp and an upper loading surface, thereby inhibiting contact between the vehicle's undercarriage and the ramp's upper surface and/or the upper loading surface as the vehicle is entering or exiting the ramp.
