Yes it's a cyclocross bike, a little different from a hybrid. Based on a similar frame, but has 700C wheels with knobby tires (vs 26") and road bars vs/ straight. However if you are doing mostly road riding or light trail riding (ie Pea gravel rails to trails stuff), in my opinion a cyclocross bike is far superior to a hybrid. The larger wheels offer less rolling resistance and the frame is build more for long distance touring, which would be more comfortable except for a longer reach across the top tube.
Just my 2 cents. I was recently in this market and I rode several hybrids and cyclocross bikes. I thought the cyclocross rode better for the type of use you describe in your original post.
