Police are waiting to speak to three men injured in a horror crash on the NSW Central Coast that claimed the lives of two friends.

Police said the crash happened just before 5am (AEDT) on Thursday when a south-bound vehicle hit the embankment north of Jolls Bridge.

One man, 31, was thrown from the vehicle and died at the scene. A second man, 22, was trapped in the wreckage and died before he could be released.

Three other men, aged 29, 22 and 27, were treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics then taken to hospital in a stable condition with non life-threatening injures.

Police said they hoped to speak to the injured men, all of whom were from the Sydney suburb of Auburn.
