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.
