I don't believe the BMW system uses an hydraulic pump. I do think that cars like the Mercedes E class use a hydraulic pump with electrical assist.
Also I have no idea if cars like for instance a new Honda Fit with electrical power steering have any kind of hydraulic fluid in the rack - even without an hydraulic pump, I'm also curious if there is any hydraulic fluid compartmentalized anywhere in the system.
