Buying a Jeep Renegade - which one is best?

There are a few models of Automatics, with different engines, for the Renegade. Which is your top pick and why?

The only one I would consider is the 2.0 litre diesel which has a proper 9-speed torque converter autobox, similar to a Discovery Sport or Evoque. But there are better, more sensibly priced 4WD SUVs out there, most notably the Suzuki Vitara S 1.4T.
