A woman has been killed in a single car crash on State Highway 41 near Turangi-Tokaanu late last night.

Senior Constable Dave Frazer, from the Taupo Police Serious Crash Unit, said the vehicle was travelling north on State Highway 41 at approximately 11:15pm, when the driver lost control on a bend.

Mr Frazer said the initial investigation indicated the car had spun across the road and rolled. He said the 21-year-old driver, from Wellington, was the sole occupant of the car.

It was too early in the investigation to comment on any other details in relation to the crash.

The crash victim would not be named today.
