*The Evening Rush is your daily roundup of auto, gear, and lifestyle news, all in one place. Less time searching, more time driving. Motor on.*

**Automotive**

Audio of Hyundai’s new N Performance line has been released. The verdict? Boy, does this [i30 hatchback](<https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1105083_heres-what-hyundais-first-n-performance-model-sounds-like>) sound burpy. Although the i30 is expected to get somewhere around 200hp, the sound reverberates with the might of a much bigger engine.

Spy shots of the heavily-anticipated [Jeep Wrangler pickup](<https://www.autoblog.com/2016/07/20/2019-jeep-wrangler-pickup-spy-photos/>) have leaked and: they are glorious. Although the vehicle is heavily camouflaged, we can see a true pickup bed attached to the four-door Wrangler.

If you didn’t already think the new Pokeman Go game was a bad idea, watch a Baltimore cop as he witnesses a [Toyota RAV4 nail his parked patrol car](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/4496/watch-this-pokemon-go-playing-driver-crash-into-a-cop-car>). Immediately, the driver admits he was playing the game while driving.

**Gear**

As you spend you summer evenings exploring all the outdoors has to offer, do yourself a favor and bring along the [Surefire E1D Defender](<https://www.amazon.com/SureFire-E1D-Defender-Dual-Output-Flashlight/dp/B00JM6V9T4?tag=drive09e6-20&ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00JM6V9T4&linkCode=as2&linkId=H4HXAOFUKHR5SAX3&redirect=true&ref_=as_li_tl>) flashlight. Capable of cranking out 300 lumens, this palm-sized flashlight is a perfect addition to a small adventure.

**Surefire**

Ever wondered what the brochures of a car from 50s and 60s looked like? Well, now you can finally look through this part of automotive history with the coffee table book [Automotive Design Graphics](<https://www.amazon.com/Automobile-Design-Graphics-Jim-Heimann/dp/3822853712/ref=as_at?tag=drive09e6-20&linkCode=g11&imprToken=7RxrY8Lh3OJuyVzBrovmMA>). Highlighting the marketing aspect of the automotive industry, this interesting book immerses the reader in the showrooms of years past.

**Lifestyle**

Today’s beer pick takes us to [Proclamation Ale Company](<https://www.proclamationaleco.com/#!beers/cqnr>) in West Kingston, Rhode Island. Founded in 2014, Proclamation Ale has done a fantastic job of bringing adventurous beers to Rhode Island. Sticking with four main beers, this young brewery is carefully cultivating a solid lineup.
