Answer: Worldwide constraints on crude oil have caused an increase in the price of gas, which car owners must also purchase. This statement affects the demand.

Explanation:

In the given passage only the sentence which is about the price of gas affects the demand of the product. When the price of gas increases the demand for the product decreases. Though gas is not a direct product of the company one has to purchase gas when he owns a car.

The other factors are related to company decision making and policies it affects the manufacturing of the car for company. Those factors do not affect the demand for car.
