Two teenagers have been killed, and another critically injured, after a car rolled down an embankment in the Dandenong Ranges.

The crash happened about 8.10pm on Tuesday on Monbulk Road in Kallista, near Grant's Picnic Ground and Kallista Primary School.

Investigators believe that a car travelling south on Monbulk Road crossed onto the wrong side of the road, colliding with a four-wheel-drive that was heading north.

The driver, 19-year-old Kristof Kollar from Narre Warren, and the back-seat passenger, 17-year-old Laszlo Nagy from Endeavour Hills, both died at the scene.

The third person in the car, a teen from Narre Warren North, was flown to The Alfred hospital where he remained in a critical condition on Wednesday night, with head, chest, pelvis and abdominal injuries.

The driver of the 4WD, a 62-year-old Silvan man, was not injured. 

The three mates had been visiting Laszlo's grandfather in Monbulk prior to the accident, Channel Ten reported.

Anyone with any information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report to www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
