About Bar (bar)
Equal to exactly 100,000 pascals, the bar is slightly less than one standard atmosphere and is widely used for tire pressure (2.0-2.5 bar for car tires), scuba diving depth ratings, and industrial pressure gauges in Europe. Weather maps in some countries display atmospheric pressure in millibars.
About Kilopascal (kPa)
One thousand pascals, the kilopascal is the practical unit for tire pressure in most metric countries, blood pressure monitors in some regions, and industrial process pressures. Standard atmospheric pressure is approximately 101.325 kPa, and typical car tire pressure ranges from 200 to 250 kPa.
