The usage of 是.......的.
Ok, so recently I've been wondering about sentences that end with the word '的'. I've looked at a few grammar books, and they basically say that this structure is used to focus on a detail of an event, with ‘的’ usually being used for past events and being omitted for events in the present.
An example of this sentence structure I have seen is:
- "你的车是什么颜色的?”
- ”是红色的“
So, I was wondering, why is do these sentences end with ’的‘?

Just because these words (such as 红色的,我的)are adjective. Lots of nouns can be turned into adjective if you attached a "的".
In fact, "我的车是红色的" is an abbreviation of "我的车是红色的(车)".

to make it a complete adjective
you can say 我的 车 红
or
我的 车 是 红色的

You can see a “是” before the “的”.
“是……的”is a fixed collocation,it's equal to be+adj. in English.

我的车是红色的=my car is red
的 expressing some relationships which include
1. belonging = 's
2. modified and decorated and trim(修饰,beautiful girl is decorated or trimed by beautiful )
我的车很红(✅,my car is very red but here isn't 是 in chinese. 是is approximately equal to be but completely equal )
我的车很红色(❌ 红色 = noun. You can say that the man is very America. But so weird )
