Given Statement: "The performance of XYZ washing machine is much better for Indian conditions than the highly advertised ABC washing machine."

Now, 

Assumptions:

I. ABC Washing Machines spends more on advertising as their product is not good - Not Implicit (The statement compares the performance of two washing machines and mentions the high advertising of ABC. It does not necessarily imply that the high advertising is because the product is not good. There could be other reasons for high advertising spend.)

II. ABC washing machine is a foreign brand - Not Implicit (The statement compares the performance of two washing machines under Indian conditions. While it's possible that a foreign brand might not perform as well under specific local conditions, the statement doesn't explicitly or implicitly suggest that ABC is a foreign brand. The comparison is based on performance in Indian conditions, not the origin of the brand.)

Here, Neither assumption I nor II is implicit.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"
