Conversion Formula
The formula to convert cubic inches (ci) to liters (L) is:
Liters = Cubic Inches × 0.0163871
This works since 1 cubic inch is exactly 0.0163871 liters. Multiply the number of cubic inches by this factor to get liters. It’s a simple linear scaling because both measure volume, just in different units.
Example: Convert 429 ci to liters
- Start with 429 ci.
- Multiply 429 by 0.0163871.
- 429 × 0.0163871 = 7.034 liters.
Conversion Example
Example: Convert 350 ci to liters
- Take 350 cubic inches.
- Multiply by 0.0163871 (the conversion factor).
- 350 × 0.0163871 = 5.7355 liters.
- The result is approximately 5.7355 liters.
Example: Convert 500 ci to liters
- Start with 500 ci.
- 500 × 0.0163871 = 8.19355 liters.
- So, 500 ci equals about 8.1936 liters.
Example: Convert 1000 ci to liters
- Multiply 1000 by 0.0163871.
- 1000 × 0.0163871 = 16.3871 liters.
- Hence, 1000 ci is 16.3871 liters.

Conversion Definitions
ci (cubic inch): A cubic inch is a volume measurement equal to the space occupied by a cube with edges one inch long. It is used mainly in the US and Canada for measuring smaller volumes, especially in engineering and automotive contexts. One ci equals about 16.387 cubic centimeters.
Liters: Liters are a metric unit for volume, commonly used worldwide for liquids and gases. One liter is defined as the volume of a cube measuring 10 centimeters on each side (1000 cubic centimeters). Liters measure fluid capacity in many applications like cooking, fuel, and scientific research.
Conversion FAQs
Why do I multiply cubic inches by 0.0163871 to get liters?
This number is the exact conversion factor. Since one cubic inch equals 16.3871 cubic centimeters, and one liter equals 1000 cubic centimeters, dividing 16.3871 by 1000 gives 0.0163871 liters per cubic inch.
Can I convert liters back to cubic inches?
Yes, by dividing liters by 0.0163871. This reverses the conversion, letting you find the equivalent cubic inches from a liter value.
Is this conversion accurate for all volumes?
Yes, the conversion factor is precise and works for any volume because it’s based on fixed unit definitions, no matter the size.
Are cubic inches commonly used for liquids?
They are used but less frequently than liters or gallons. Cubic inches are more often for solids or engine displacement, while liters suit fluid volumes better.
How does temperature affect cubic inch to liter conversions?
Temperature can change the volume of liquids, but units themselves don’t change. The conversion stays valid, but actual liquid volume may vary slightly with temperature changes.
