engine displacement
Swept piston volume
Engine displacement is the total volume swept by all pistons inside an engine's cylinders during one complete cycle, typically measured in liters or cubic centimeters (cc).
It serves as a rough indicator of an engine's power output—larger displacement generally means more power.
The motorcycle has a 600cc displacement.
American muscle cars were known for their big-block V8 displacement.
