As Mingyu pointed out, there is a problem in formatting. Other than that, I would strongly recommend not using the Derived class's name while calling super() since it makes your code inflexible (code maintenance and inheritance issues). In Python 3, Use super().__init__ instead. Here is the code after incorporating these changes :
class Car(object):
condition = "new"
def __init__(self, model, color, mpg):
self.model = model
self.color = color
self.mpg = mpg
class ElectricCar(Car):
def __init__(self, battery_type, model, color, mpg):
self.battery_type=battery_type
super().__init__(model, color, mpg)
Thanks to Erwin Mayer for pointing out the issue in using __class__ with super()
