The 2020 Transit was slated to get the 2.0L. But dealers didn't order many, and they can't meet existing orders for EcoBoost AWDs (and many other configurations), so Ford cancelled the 2.0L diesel for 2021. There's a lot of unhappy folks because their EcoBoost orders aren't being built before the model year cut-off and Ford isn't automatically carrying them over to 2021s. The dealers have to re-order. Speculation is the diesel will return whenever EcoBoost AWDs aren't backordered so far.
BTW - the 2020+ Transits have an 11,000 GVWR and 4600# FAWR now. And the 10-speed transmission. Also the 2021 Transit gets a nice walk-through option, with an electronic parking brake, modified shifter location, and step-on floor plate. I'm sure it's being done for Amazon, but it might be a nice option for motorhomes too.
