The P1 is currently on a global tour, with the intention of attracting buyers to the McLaren brand. McLaren expects to build no more than 500 P1s, but the limited production run has yet to sell out.

The McLaren P1 made its Middle East debut in Bahrain in January. Bahrain is the Middle East base for McLaren and is home to the company's majority shareholder, Mumtalakat.
