The 19-year-old was travelling in the Range Rover and died at the scene.
His family have been informed and are being supported by specialist officers.
A second 19-year-old man who was also travelling in the Range Rover remains in hospital.

The driver of the tractor was also taken to hospital for treatment following the collision. He is helping officers with their enquiries.
The A163 was closed for most of the night as officers conducted investigation work at the scene.
They are appealing to anyone who witnessed the collision, saw either vehicle in the moments leading up to it, or has relevant dashcam footage, to come forward.
