New car manufacturers don't like to drop prices, but they do like to offer cash back and below market rate interest incentives. Especially towards the end of the model year. Very low cost leases show up from time to time as well.

You also see things like pausing production when supply is outpacing demand. Sometimes it's subtle like stopping the line a few weeks before the scheduled stop, or starting it back a few weeks later, and sometimes it's a month off during the model year.
