ELI5 What happens to brand new cars that are never purchased?

 If they just go to used car lots, how can manufacturers keep up with the losses?

Usually, dealerships will just offer more and more discounts and deals until the car gets sold. Even if they eventually end up selling the car at a loss, at least they recouped some of the investment.

Manufacturers usually do a good job of using data from past years to figure out how many of each car model to produce, so there aren't very many unsold new cars anyway.
