Pretty much every MB sold in many parts of Canada came with/comes with a block heater. They have been installed since the 1960's. I don't know a diesel owner without one, and I have never owned a car without one.
They are installed in a frost plug location, and I have had to replace a few, and it's a bit of a job. You might think about an inline coolant heater that is installed in a coolant hose, or a special oil pan element. When I liven in the Yukon it would get to -55C in the winter, and I had an engine block heater, a coolant circulating heater and a battery blanket on my Civic. Even getting close to -60C it would start.
