Funny, the Michelin site rates the Defender as an 8 out of 10 for fuel efficiency?

My only winter choice (which I have to make soon) would be the X-Ice® Xi3.
2012 Dodge Grand Caravan Canada+Value+Package Tires | Michelin Tires |Winter Tire
It is rated at 10/10 for fuel efficiency. What is with that?
Winter tires are always less fuel efficient for various reasons.
I work for Michelin but I am a mechanical/electrical guy, not a tire expert.
Does anyone else understand this? (Defender 8of10 fuel rating vs X-Ice®Xi3 10of 10)
