Where the 2.4L 4-cyl sits in the Regal engine lineup
Every engine family this model was sold with, ordered by size. The bar spans the model years it was fitted; the price is what cars carrying it ask today. Older engines look cheaper because the cars are older — the only fair comparison is an engine whose years overlap this one's.

Which Regal years got a 2.4L 4-cyl engine
Every model year this engine was fitted to, newest first. The bar is how much of the family's VIN volume sits in that year — long bars are the years this engine was everywhere.
VIN counts come from our decode of the model's build patterns, not from live listings. A year link opens the full Regal report for that year — every engine of the model, not just this one.

The 2.4L 4-cyl Regal: common questions
Which Regal years have the 2.4L 4-cyl?
2011–2017, without a break — 7 model years in our VIN decode, across 28 factory configurations and 14,946 VINs.
What does a 2.4L 4-cyl Regal cost?
$7,195 is the typical asking price across the 116 cars with this engine on sale today. The year-by-year ladder above splits that by model year — the spread between the oldest and newest year is far wider than the spread between engines.
What is the engine code, and does it matter?
LAF — the code the VIN decodes to on the configurations on this page. It matters when you order parts or read a service history: the same displacement badge on another model can be a different code with different outputs.
