Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sautΓ© until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic, diced carrot, and diced celery, cooking for another 5 minutes until softened.
Add the chopped tomatoes to the pot and stir well, allowing them to cook for 5 minutes until they begin to break down.
Pour in the vegetable broth and add the tomato paste, stirring to combine.
Season with salt, black pepper, and sugar, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot, letting the soup simmer for 20 minutes to meld the flavors.
Remove the pot from the heat and allow the soup to cool slightly, then carefully blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or by working in batches with a countertop blender.
Return the pureed soup to the pot and gently rewarm over low heat if necessary.
Stir in the fresh basil just before serving.
Serve hot and garnish with additional basil leaves if desired.
