Average Cylinder Displacement

Most of these are not close to what I would have guessed. Remember its not Engine displacement, but cylinder displacement, so 2.0L 4-cylinder is 2.0/4 = 0.5

Sounds right to me. A noticeable trend is in Asian cars marketed as "premium" coupes/sedans are V6's with bumps up displacement every generation. For example, a 7th gen (2002ish-2007) Honda Accord V6 used a 3.0, versus the 8th gen (current) which uses a J35, 3.5 V6. The opposite can be said of many American brands in an effort to seem to more economical. Ford went from a 4.0 V6 in the old Stang to the new 3.7.
