you don't get it. The rated range has been set by tesla arbitarily and sort of guided by the EPA cycle. The RWD has around 8% more range than the AWD in the EPA highway test and is hence more efficient. Tesla chose to give both of them a rated range of 310 miles but in the RWD you could go faster and still hit rated range as it was more efficient.
That's not quite complete. I don't recall the exact timing of this, but in early 2019, Tesla announced an efficiency boost for the Model 3, and with it, they increased the range claims of the Model 3 LR RWD from 310 miles to, IIRC, 325 miles. The LR AWD and LR Performance models did not get that range boost at that time, but they did get a range boost more recently with a second round of software tweaks from Tesla. That seems to be the point of
@nightfly's question -- since the LR RWD was discontinued (for the second time) before this second range boost, the question is whether a hypothetical resuscitation of the LR RWD configuration would result in a further claimed range increase, and if so, to what value.
FWIW, in researching this answer, I checked the fueleconomy.gov Web site. It shows the 2019 LR RWD with its original 310-mile rated range. Interestingly, although that configuration is no longer available, it does show up as an option for the 2020 model year on fueleconomy.gov, with a 330-mile rated range. This is despite the fact that the 2019 and 2020 versions have identical MPGe figures.
Here's the side-by-side comparison. It could be that's the answer right there -- Tesla would now claim a 330-mile range for the LR RWD. OTOH, maybe that's a glitch or oversight on the fueleconomy.gov Web site.
All of this, of course, is distinct from the question of how far you can
actually drive the car on a full battery. The phrase "your mileage may vary" is at play here in a very literal way. To the extent that Tesla actually tweaked the efficiency of the drivetrain, their changes may result in actual range increases; but if they just muck with parameters relating to how it's displayed on the screen, it won't have any real-world effect. Tesla has been as clear as mud about the details.
