It's the total of the swept volume, i.e. the space the piston head moves through beetween the bottom of its stroke and the top, for all cylinders in an engine. So if the swept volume of a single cylinder in a 4 cylinder engine is 500cc then the cubic capacity of the whole engine is 4x500cc =2000cc or 2 litres.

In the combustion chamber where the gasoline explodes is where the 2 litres of space is. The larger this space the larger the explosion and the more powerful the engine.
The explosion pushes down a piston that turns a crankshaft to deliver power to the wheels.

It means cylinder displacement. You take the volume (IOW, how much space there is) in the cylinders when the piston is at the top of its stroke, and subtract that from the volume in the cylinders when the piston is at the bottom. So if there's a difference of two litres, it's a two-litre engine.
