Original rally car was a 16v (valver)
Rally rules changed to allow 2litre engine.
Reno had no 2 litre engine car suitible so they 'homologated' (made enough road going versions) the Williams to allow them to enter the car to the rally class with a 2 litre engine.
The Williams badge was a marketing plan to make the car more appealing to the British public following the success of the 1992 ansd 1993 F1 Renault Williams cars
