Tesla YouTuber Bjørn Nyland spends a lot of time driving around with the Scan My Tesla app overlaid on his stream.

Lots of interesting real-time data in there from the motors, battery, and cooling/heating systems.

On the Model 3, it’s particularly interesting how it will start to generate extra heat from the motors as you approach a supercharger. Routing that heat to the battery brings the cells up to optimal temperature to allow faster charging.
