Battery voltage will drop for many reasons, the main one being corrosion. In an auto the battery is usually a lead acid type and is therefore subject to corrosion from acid seepage around the terminals. The corrosion is resistant to the flow of electrical current causing the voltage beyond the terminal to drop or in some cases be absent.
