You have little clue what you are talking about. My Malibu has 3times better steering feel then a Mini will ever have.

The reason electric P/S is used is for better fuel economy. And an upside as well is that you can control the steering assist in a non-linear fashion based upon vehicle speed and braking inputs. You simply cannot do that with conventional p/s.
