My read on it (elsewhere it says "belt driven alternator starter") is that it will be a toothed belt onto the crank (it is the starter afterall) and will be able to drive the crank with a limited power output (It's only 48V, you'd be hard pressed to get a standing start with any kind of urgency!).
Power steering will be electric or electro-hydraulic anyway, and I'm not sure about the state of brake assistance these days - autonomous braking systems says its some kind of electric servo, whether or not it uses vacuum boosting?

2009 Volvo XC90 V8 R Design - has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!
