Explanation:
There are several meaning of the term:

*engine capacity
*engine cilinder capacity
*(cubic)cilinder capacity
*cilinder charge
*piston displacement
*swept volume
If it is a brochure intended for ordinary people I would choose the first term. If the text is more technical I would choose among the rest, depending on the context.
