The Engineering Explained YouTube channel accuses Dodge of stretching the facts by quoting the Demon 170's 0-to-60-miles-per-hour time at 1.66 seconds because the figure includes a rollout, among other issues. The automaker doesn't make the disclaimers clear in any info about the muscle car. The video also goes through all of the factors necessary for achieving the ridiculously quick acceleration time.
A rollout refers to the way automakers calculate 0-60 times. The process ignores roughly the first foot of acceleration. Rather than figuring things out from a complete stop, the vehicle already is moving when the stopwatch starts.
