what is the meaning of 1.1liter engine in cars ?

Answer 1

It's the metric displacement of the engine.
It's the amount of liquid the cylinder(s) would hold with the piston at BDC. [from the top of the piston flush to the top of the block]
A rough conversion is 1 Litre = 61.5 in³
e.g. A 350 engine is rated @ 5.7L

Answer 2

Engine displacement is measured in liters. Displacement is the amount of space, or volume, taken up in the cylinder by the motion of the piston, multiplied by the number of cylinders.

For example, if you have a four-cylinder engine, and each piston moves through a space in its cylinder that works out to half a liter in size, that is a 2.0 liter engine.

Displacement is a major factor in the engine's horsepower and torque. Generally speaking, the larger the displacement, the more powerful the engine, all other things being equal.

Answer 3

Engine displacement is defined as the total volume of air/fuel mixture an engine can draw in during one complete engine cycle; it is normally stated in cubic centimetres, litres or cubic inches. In a piston engine, this is the volume that is swept as the pistons are moved from top dead centre to bottom dead centre.

Answer 4

The engine size measured in total combustion volume of the cylinders:
