How to Convert Liter to Cubic Inch
- 1 L = 61.02374409 in³
- 1 in³ = 0.016387064 L
- Example: convert 15 L to in³: 15 L = 15 × 61.02374409 in³ = 915.3561614 in³
Formula
in³ = L × 61.02374409473
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 L = 1 dm³ = (0.1 m)³ = 10⁻³ m³
- 1 in³ = (0.0254 m)³ = 1.6387064 × 10⁻⁵ m³ = 16.387064 cm³
- 1 L = 0.001 m³ ÷ 0.000016387064 m³ per in³ = 61.02374409473 in³
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Liter definition: liter; Cubic Inch definition: cubic inch.
Worked examples
- A 5.7 L engine displaces 347.8353413 in³.
5.7 L × 61.02374409 = 347.8353413 in³ - 2 L is 122.0474882 in³.
2 L × 61.02374409 = 122.0474882 in³
