my_tesla = ElectricCar('Tesla','Model S', 2019)
print(my_tesla.get_descriptive_name)

Answer

This is not an error. It’s printing the correct thing. What you are doing is not calling a function instead printing it as an object as in python everything is an object.

Solution:

print(my_tesla.get_descriptive_name())

This will print your desired output i.e “2019 Tesla Model S”
