Hi, How's the price compare to the gasser?

Is the H12 pre-heater/booster available?

It's not clear yet. I believe MB indicated it would only be available on the cargo van. When I go to the online configurator (which is notoriously unreliable), you can choose the 4 cylinder diesel on a 144 low roof, a 170 high roof, or a 170 extended high roof, but strangely not a 144 high roof. However, tough to deny this isn't in fact a 144 high roof 4 cyl diesel: http://instagr.am/p/CKAVmxppPbb/

And the online configurator does not show (as of 1/16) the 4 cylinder diesel as an option for any crew 2021.

Hey! Great news, you can order the 4 cylinder diesel in all models. Do you need help configuring anything? I am a dealer.

Price is about $1000 swing from gas to diesel and up to 6 cylinder diesel is another $5000

OK, Which engine is the new 4 cylinder diesel?
Is it the same OM-651 as 2014-2016 USA Spec. or perhaps the OM-654 we have
heard about as the sucessor to the OM-651?

The engine you referenced: The OM651 is a family of inline-four cylinder automobile diesel engines introduced by Mercedes-Benz in 2008. Wikipedia

The new engine is a 2.0

van_bae,
Do you have a VIN# or FIN # off one of your new 4 Cylinder Diesel Sprinters so I can look up
all the specifications on this new "2.0 liter" inline 4 cylinder diesel.
The OM-651 is 2.143 liters in USA specification Sprinters. 83 mm bore x 99 mm stroke.
There is also another version of the OM-651 that is 1.8 liters (1,796 cc).
OM-651 Compression ratio is 16.2:1.
The O-654 is 2.0 liters (1,950 cc) with a Bore of 82 mm and stroke of 92.3 mm.
The OM-654 has a lower compression ratio @ 15.5:1.
Sounds like the new 2020-2021 Sprinter 2.0 liter turbo diesel is the OM-654.

The DOG (dealer order guide) is totally inconsistent. It states specifically OM651. Then the optional engine is listed as a "2.0 L 4 cyl."
