His eldest son, Gobind Singh Deo confirmed the passing of his father through a statement on Twitter at 3.40am.
Karpal was reportedly on his way from Kuala Lumpur to Penang with his son, Rampkarpal Singh, also a lawyer, for a court case later this morning.
Ramkarpal and the driver of the car were both seriously injured.
The Toyota Alphard the four were in had apparently collided with a lorry. A photograph of the scene showed the white vehicle being badly damaged in the crash.
Karpal became paralysed and wheelchair-bound after a road accident in 2005.
The Bukit Gelugor MP was formerly parliamentarian for Jelutong for many years. His fiery speeches in court and in the Dewan Rakyat earned him the moniker: "Tiger of Jelutong".
Karpal recently relinquished his post as DAP chairman after a High Court judge found him guilty of uttering seditious words against the Sultan of Perak in 2009.
