What's cybrid steering?
The XT6's came equiped with a Cybrid Power Seering system(the only car so equiped, to my knowledge), which is a power steering pump that runs via an electric motor diving the pump, opposed to the more common belt driven power steering pump used on pretty much everything else.

This free's up some power, by not using the engine to turn the pump.

It accually works rather well, don't know why they didn't incorperate it into thier other cars.
