Sluggish start = Battery Problem. Alternator plays no role in how the car cranks. Your battery is from 2017 and has exceeded its life expectancy by a fair margin, you need to replace it asap.

The alternators on these cars are not always charging, they only activate when the voltage drops below a certain level, otherwise the battery is propelling the car. This was done to conserve fuel.

The alternator may be on its way out too, but your battery definitely needs to be swapped out.
