One of the benefits of classes is that we can create more complicated classes that inherit variables or methods from their parent classes. This saves us time and helps us build more complicated objects, since these child classes can also include additional variables or methods.
We define a “child” class that inherits all of the variables and functions from its “parent” class like so:
Normally we use object as the parent class because it is the most basic type of class, but by specifying a different class, we can inherit more complicated functionality.
Instructions

Then, create an electric car named my_car with a "molten salt" battery_type. Supply values of your choice for the other three inputs (model, color and mpg).
