It is a light rear wheel drive car with tissue paper thick sound proofing. All you are hearing are the 100% normal sounds of such a car. All cars make the same sort of sounds but FWD hides them ahead of the firewall and even the budget sedans have more sound proofing than we do. You can add soundproofing if they bother you but don't worry there is something wrong. There isn't.
