One method of measuring engine size, and the most common, refers to the 'displacement' of the engine. This is calculated by measuring the difference in the volume of an engine cylinder when the piston is at the bottom of its travel and when it is at the top of its travel. This is the displacement of an individual cylinder. Multiplying this amount by the number of cylinders gives the engine displacement. Therefore, the total displacement of a 2.5 liter engine approximates 2.5 liters, or 2500 cubic centimeters. (cc's) Often, the figure will be rounded up, so a 2.5 liter might actually displace 2.38 liters.
