Is the transmission of the 1.3T version of the Jeep Renegade the same as the old one? Are there any improvements in comparison, and is the failure rate high? I'm considering getting the 1.3, but there are so few four-wheel-drive options. I also don't want a naturally aspirated engine.

Looking to buy a four-wheel-drive version of the Jeep Renegade, model years 2016-2018.
Is the transmission of the 1.3T version of the Jeep Renegade the same as the old one? Are there any improvements in comparison, and is the failure rate high? I'm considering getting the 1.3, but there are so few four-wheel-drive options. I also don't want a naturally aspirated engine.
Due to work, I've moved to a rural area and I'm considering buying a four-wheel drive vehicle. My options are the Haval Raptor and Subaru XV. I want to ask friends here, is the trunk of the XV spacious enough? I have a two-month-old baby and often need to carry a stroller. From the photos, the XV's trunk doesn't look very large. Also, there's a common issue with boxer engines consuming oil—does the XV have this problem too?
4Hey car enthusiasts, does your Jeep Renegade have a lot of engine noise inside? I feel like the engine noise in my 1.3T is particularly loud.
5I'm considering buying a 2018 or 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Is the failure rate high? Does it require frequent repairs, or is it not as serious as what people say online?
6My 2019 Jeep 1.3T Renegade has over 73,000 kilometers. When I release the brake in reverse on a slope, there's a muffled "bang" sound with a sense of impact. It occasionally happens on flat ground too, but the sound is much quieter. Can anyone tell me what's going on here?
7As a new driver, I've only driven the 2019 2.0 model, and I find the acceleration quite sluggish. When I press the gas pedal deeply, the engine needs to reach around 1800-2000 RPM to speed up a bit, and the engine noise is quite loud. Is this normal for a naturally aspirated engine with a CVT? I tried using the DS mode, which seems to provide what I consider normal acceleration, but I noticed the RPM goes up to four or five thousand. My friend's 1.5T Geely doesn't make much noise and feels more powerful.
