The Escape SEL/Titanium's standard easy entry system glides the driver's seat back when the door is unlocked or the ignition is switched off, making it easier for the driver to get in and out. The Tiguan doesn't offer an easy entry system.
The Escape Titanium offers an optional heads-up display that projects speed and navigation instruction readouts in front of the driver's line of sight, allowing drivers to view information without diverting their eyes from the road. The Tiguan doesn't offer a heads-up display.
In case you lock your keys in your vehicle, or don't have them with you, you can let yourself in using the Escape SE/SEL/Titanium's exterior PIN entry system. The Tiguan doesn't offer an exterior PIN entry system, and its Car-Net can't unlock the doors if the vehicle doesn't have cell phone reception or the driver can't contact the service.

The Escape's standard speed-sensitive wipers speed up when the vehicle does, so that the driver doesn't have to continually adjust the speed of the wipers. The Tiguan's standard manually variable intermittent wipers have to be constantly adjusted.
To improve rear visibility by keeping the rear window clear, the Escape has a standard rear fixed intermittent wiper with a full on position. The rear wiper standard on the Tiguan only has an intermittent setting, so in a hard rain visibility isn't as good.
The Escape Titanium has a 115-volt a/c outlet on the center console, allowing you to recharge a laptop or run small household appliances without special adapters that can break or get misplaced. The Tiguan doesn't offer a house-current electrical outlet.
The Escape Titanium's Active Park Assist 2.0 can parallel park or back into a parking spot by itself, starting, stopping and changing direction automatically. The Tiguan doesn't offer an automated parking system.
