Exported PS1 environment variable, doesn’t persist in a subshell

In CentOS 7, when I execute:

export PS1="NewPrompt: "

bash

The prompt “NewPrompt” remains the same in the subshell.
I verify I’m in a subshell with the command:

echo $SHLVL

that returns “2”.
I believe that this is the expected behaviour.

However, when I repeat the same commands in Ubuntu 18.04, the “NewPrompt” doesn’t remain in the subshell.
I was testing this behaviour as part of my LPIC-1 training.
Is there a workaround for getting the “NewPrompt” to stay in a subshell in Ubuntu 18.04?
