It's Infiniti that are launching this year and Nissan have developed a system a while ago that was being tested in different ways.

Their system disengages a clutch in the steering column while running electrically so if it fails it reverts to a manual system, it also uses redundant ECUs. Its actually designed and built by the company that I work for.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

If you are thinking of a full hydro steering kit dont fit it If you use your car as a daily drive.

You won't be able to make short turn to corners, park your car, etc.

If you think of hydro assist, is something like steering absorber but helps you turn BIG tyres without spuezing your

steering box.( jimny's s.b. can handle until 32'-33' )

These systems are for 35'' and up tyre sizes.
