The couple, believed to be aged 17 or 18, were on Bandiana Link Road when the car they were travelling in caught on fire about 5.45pm.
Wodonga brigade was on scene for almost two hours extinguishing the blaze with Wodonga police and the road was closed and reopened about 6.45pm.
A detour was set up around the scene where cars were required to drive on the grass but a semi-trailer got bogged just before the road was reopened.
Wodonga firefighters said the couple did not receive injuries but the young woman was shaken up and the car was completely damaged.
The cause of the fire was unknown.
