All the Aeros have ZF/BMW hydraulic power assisted steering: one of the reasons we moved on from the Roadster was the heavy steering.
The Aero steering isn't especially light, but it doesn't load up at low speed, in that respect it is "modern". The CX cars also have power steering, which I found to be very similar to the Aero, perhaps a bit lighter and with less feedback: typical of electric powered steering.
I'd also be interested to hear how people find the Roadster with power steering.
