Dillon started the 200-lap race in the pole position - his fourth pole of the season - and stayed there for most of the afternoon.
Denny Hamlin took the lead near the end of the race, but couldn't hold off the quick No. 33 Chevrolet in the final 15 laps and finished second - nearly three seconds after Dillon.
Kasey Kahne, Regan Smith, and Darrell Wallace Jr. rounded out the top five.
Dillon's brother, Ty, finished seventh, and points leader Chris Buescher finished 11th. Kevin Harvick, in his sixth Xfinity start of the season, finished 14th and led 11 laps on the 1.5-mile oval track.
The win is the 25-year-old Dillon's second trip to Victory Lane in the Xfinity Series this season. He has seven top-five finishes in nine starts.
Dillon will hope to win two races in two days when he starts 11th in Sunday's Sprint Cup Coca-Cola 600.
