North American intermodal transportation is undergoing a structural shift: domestic share historically surpasses international, as the dual impact of tariffs and energy reshapes the logistics landscape.

IANA data shows that North American intermodal volume in May increased by 4.4% year-over-year, with domestic containers up 8.6% while international containers grew only 0.4%, and the domestic share exceeded 50% for the first time. The Iran conflict has pushed up diesel prices, tariffs have suppressed imports, and truck capacity has tightened, collectively driving a modal shift. This article analyzes the drivers, sustainability, and implications for the global logistics landscape of this structural turning point.
