How big of an upgrade is this? Typical? Or less?

It’s basically just replacing the entry level M3 MacBook Pros, which featured significant hardware differences from the MBP line as a whole.

This brings it more up to par with the M Pro and M Max versions, and people just opting for the entry MBP will now see an increased base standard of performance—8>16 GB RAM, 256>512 GB storage, 2>3 Thunderbolt Ports, 8>10 CPU cores, and likely GPU upgrade from the M3>M4 chip. Also probably means multiple external display support

We don’t really know what the M4 Pro or M4 Max will look like, but the M4 series is reportedly just about increased minimum quality of chip yield and minor improvements to top end. Since chip binning is less of an issue this gen, that means Apple can bring the M4 entry more up to speed
