The driver lost control of the car while travelling down Botany Road around 10.30pm. It is understood the car flipped, hit a power pole and burst into flames.
A Police Media spokesperson said, while they had not formally identified the victims, they believed the man and woman were teenagers and the driver was likely a P plater.
She said it was not yet clear whether the driver was speeding but that investigators were "keeping their mind open on all options at this point".
The spokesperson said reports there were three dead were incorrect but the fact there was confusion indicated just how bad the wreckage was.
