Does that mean that there will be a 2024 i4 eDrive40 with additional range over the 2023 model? 2023 i4 edrive40 is rated for 301 epa, right? How did they get an AWD with more range?

Sounds like it was a software change (or some sort of cooling upgrade or hidden EV AWD benefit?) Maybe driving all four wheels uses less cumulative power than a single RWD motor (to overcome rolling friction or something?) Those'd be my guesses.
2023 has the same battery with a 'usable' rating of 80.7 kWh.
