Your subclass does not need (and should not have) a new() method; it can use
the one from the base class.

As Randal pointed out, the subclass _init needs to call
$self->SUPER::_init(), and then do any additional initialization. If there
is no additional initialization in the subclass, you don't need an _init
method there either.
