Power steering is now offered in a few different ways; hydraulic, electrical, and more recently, drive-by-wire. Types of Power Steering Power steering is either hydraulic, electronic, or electro-hydraulic. Drive-by-wire is a variation of electrical power steering. Hydraulic steering is not without flaws though.
