Engine displacement is measured in cubic centimeters (CC) in most of the world, but in cubic inches (CI) in American automotive contexts — this CC to CI Converter switches between the two. Enter your Cubic Centimeters or Cubic Inches value, then select your Conversion Direction to get the Converted Value along with the conversion factor and formula used.

To convert cubic centimeters to cubic inches, multiply the CC value by 0.0610237441. The formula is: Cubic Inches = CC × 0.0610237441.
To convert cubic inches to cubic centimeters, multiply the cubic inch value by 16.387064. The formula is: CC = Cubic Inches × 16.387064.
CC stands for cubic centimeters, which measures the total volume of air and fuel that an engine's cylinders can hold. It's a metric unit commonly used to describe engine size and displacement.
CC (cubic centimeters) is used in the metric system, commonly in Europe and Asia, while cubic inches are used in the imperial system, primarily in the United States. Both measure the same thing - engine displacement volume.
A typical car engine ranges from 1000cc to 6000cc (61 to 366 cubic inches). For example, a 2000cc engine equals approximately 122 cubic inches, while a 350 cubic inch V8 equals about 5735cc.
No, engine displacement measures volume capacity, not power output. While larger displacement often correlates with more power, factors like engine design, fuel injection, and turbocharging significantly affect actual horsepower and torque.
The conversion is mathematically precise using the factor 1 cubic inch = 16.387064 cubic centimeters. Our calculator provides accurate results to several decimal places for professional automotive applications.
