The 15-year old was one of four teenage boys in the vehicle which crashed into a tree on Wheatlands Lane, Enborne, at around 4am.
Floral tributes have been left and the scene, and dozens of people have taken to social media to share their grief.
One wrote: “He was an amazing person who never failed to make us laugh at school. Always in our hearts.”
Another said: “Never did I think I was going to wake up and hear that you've been taken from us. Rest in paradise Charlie. Gone but never forgotten.”
The driver of the car, a 16-year-old boy, suffered serious injuries which require surgery and remained in a serious condition at the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford yesterday (Monday) afternoon.
